I fell asleep,I woke up by the sound of knock on my door.
When I open it,it was Kendrick.

"Hey,Ken. What's up buddy?"

"Are you coming to brother's game?"

I shake my head. "He doesn't want me to be there."

He showed me a jersey.
"He want you to come. Wearing this."

It was his favorite jersey.

"Why?"

"I don't know. He said that he's sorry."

"What for?"

"For hurting you."

I nod.

"Then,will you come?"

"I'll think about it."

"He said he won't play until your there."

"I'll think about it,baby. I'll bring you home." I hold his hand,and I walked him back to their house.
Where Hanz is sitting on the stair ready to play. He was fully dressed.

We look at each other,but I broke our eye contact and look at Ken.

"Thank you for taking me home." He said.

"Anytime buddy." I kissed him the cheek,as I walked home.

When I got home,I look at his favorite jersey.
C'mon guys,we all know that I will come whether he want me there or not .

I never knew why his number is 12.

I look outside,and saw their car driving away.
I look at the wallclock,it's 5:30 .

"Shit I'm late!"

***
I wore the black short and my vans ,I tuck his jersey it was so big for me.
I don't have time to erase Untie's makeup,I just wished it's not too smudge.
I look at my wallclock,and it's 6!

"Shit! " I practically run.

When I look at the scoreboard.
Home:25. Visitor:40.

"Why won't Rivero play?!" A fan complained.

He was sitting on the bench while both his grandparents and his coach telling him to play.

I saw Kendrick,sitting alone .
I sat next to him.

"Why won't he play?" I asked.

"He's waiting for my sister."

"Sister? Who?"

He look at me,and he was surprised. "Nana! Papi ! Marie is here!"
He shouted ,and everyone look at Kendrick then they all look at me.

"What?" I ask looking at everyone.

"She's wearing Rivero's favorite jersey."
"Must be his girlfriend"
"I never saw her before."
